[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of parents are afraid to do much if they aren't popular, [b]very knowledgeable in soccer, have a lot of time[/b] or don't have a strong player. In the baseball little league world everyone is a volunteer and it's easier to step up. In travel programs there is an expectation that it should be run completely as a business even if you are a volunteer. [/quote]

To be a parent volunteer for a team staff you need zero and I mean zero knowledge of soccer.  So, this excuse is 100% BS.  You're just being lazy.[/quote]
I work full time and don’t want to spend what little free time I have dealing with pita parents. I’d much rather pay someone else to do it even if it means paying more. It’s the same reason I don’t clean my own house, have my groceries delivered and have a landscaping service. [/quote]

The underlying issue you completely missed is this isn't a chore.  This is about your children.  You are so lazy you won't even be more involved with your children.  That's the sad part.  Do you hire someone to drop them off and pick them up too?  Do you hire someone to cheer for them during games as well?

Imagine a parent comparing being involved in their kid's sport's activity to cleaning the house or shopping for food.  WTF is wrong with you lazy people.  Feel sorry for your kid for having such a horrible parent.[/quote]
Oh get off your high horse. Kids club soccer is just another paid activity we buy for our kids. Like going to Disney. Does Disney ask me to volunteer and wash my own dishes? But it’s for the kids! [/quote]

So instead of actually being involved with your kids you third party them out.  Got it.  Don't make excuses.  Just admit and move on.[/quote]

He pays someone to stand in express pass line with them[/quote]
